Public Participation Plan

Public participation is a long standing attribute of the planning process. WILMAPCO must elicit from both stakeholders and the general public their opinion on the goals and objectives of the Regional Transportation Plan, their perspective on the transportation needs of various groups, and their view on investment strategies. We are also asked to reach out to people who are traditionally underserved by transportation projects, such as low-income and minority households.

Public Participation Plan Evaluation

Periodically the Public Participation Plan undergoes an evaluation of its public participation activities and initiatives. The PPP is then revised or amended to enhance public participation in the transportation planning process.
